FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Cleveland, OH — March 2010 — Oxcyon, Inc. today announced the release of Centralpoint Digital Experience Platform version 8.0.30. Now serving 6 enterprise clients and in its 10th year of operation since its founding on September 1, 2000, Oxcyon continues to deliver regular platform updates across its growing base of enterprise licensees.
Version 8.0.30 delivered the following enhancements to the Centralpoint Digital Experience Platform:
- The increased console security released in version 8.0.29 caused the View Report links in the Reporting > Report Builder module to fail. These links have been repaired.
- An earlier update package included a change to the scheduler that used a file based lock to prevent overlapping scheduled jobs when the master application was restarted. Occasionally, this lock file has been orphaned by server failures or reboots. To resolve this problem the locking mechanism has been updated to expire if it has been there for more than 6 hours.
- A bug has been repaired which caused the Publishing > Articles module to return an error when you executed a Whole Phrase search over the Issue Id field with a search string that was not a valid Guid to return an error.
- The options available in the Admin > RTF Editor > Skin attribute have been updated. The Gray and Inox skins have been removed and Forest, Simple and Windows 7 have been added.
- You can now control the format of the browser title bar for home pages and navigation items independently using the module properties in the Site Architecture > Home Pages & Navigation modules.
- The Editor has been updated so that it no longer replaces fully qualified URLs within the same site with root relative URLs. It was determined that this was only a problem with the Media Manager dialog, so the replacements now only occur for specific URLs. These replacements have also been updated so that they now support SSL connections.
- Admin > Properties > Web Site Logout Redirect has been updated to work more predictable with the LogoutStatus script and the options and help file have been rewritten to describe these features.
- The Reports > Report Builder > File Name attribute is now validated to ensure that it contains a unique value. Please review all existing records in this module to ensure the file names are unique because duplicate file names cause the related notifications to fail.
- The Advertising > Ad Tracking > Banners > Roles attribute contained an unwanted "Please Select…" option that was removed. This option was added by a glitch in the Master > CMS > Modules > Attributes view which has been repaired.
- The Site Architecture > Navigation & Home Pages modules have a new attribute called "Nav Groups" that works with a property named "NavGroups" supported by all web site CpScripts. The "Site Map Nav Groups" keyword list can be populated with a series of keywords with mutually exclusive values. When the NavGroups property of a CpScript is set to a comma separated list of Site Map Nav Group values, the script will return the empty string when not on a site map item (Navigation & Home Pages) with at least one of the provided Nav Groups selected. When the NavGroups property is excluded the CpScript is displayed on all pages.
- The Advertising > Advertisers modules now provides two new options for including advertisers on specific site map items (Navigation & Home Pages).
- If you select Navigation Specific under the Page Type attribute you are now provided with a new option called Include Children. Selecting 'Yes' will include the advertiser on all selected navigation items and their children. This does not include all descents of the selected navigation items, only children.
- A new Page Type option named "Nav Groups" now exists and exposes a multi select keyword list when selected. This keyword list can be managed individually in all sites and is also included in the Navigation and Home Pages modules new Nav Groups attributes. An advertiser will display on all site map items (Navigation & Home Pages) with overlapping Nav Groups when this new Page Type is selected.
- A bug in the web site reset your password feature has been found and repaired. This feature now resets the user's password and emails the correct new password to the user. This feature has also been updated to support Global Logins.
- Marketplace > Configuration > Packages contains a new attribute called Maximum Category Limit which works with a new forms management validator called TaxonomyByPackage. This validator can be set up to validate a taxonomy control to ensure that it contains fewer than the maximum category limit for the current package.
About Oxcyon and Centralpoint
Oxcyon is a technology company specializing in enterprise knowledge platforms, best known for its flagship solution, Centralpoint. Centralpoint is designed to unify structured and unstructured information across organizations, enabling enterprises to aggregate data from disparate systems, normalize it through rich metadata, and transform it into actionable knowledge. By treating information as interconnected knowledge rather than isolated documents or databases, Centralpoint allows organizations to build a true enterprise knowledge layer — one that supports governance, compliance, operational intelligence, and advanced analytics. Its metadata-first architecture enables organizations to ingest, classify, and relate data from sources such as documents, forms, databases, applications, and external systems, creating a centralized environment for discovery, reporting, and operational decision-making.
What differentiates Centralpoint is its ability to go beyond traditional data management into data mining, inferencing, and AI-driven knowledge operations. Through taxonomy systems, relationship modeling, and rule-based data governance, the platform can identify patterns, infer relationships between records, and automate workflow decisions based on contextual intelligence. This capability allows organizations to move from passive data storage to active knowledge processing — surfacing insights, triggering workflows, and powering intelligent automation. With its integrated support for enterprise search, metadata-driven analytics, workflow orchestration, and AI-ready data structures, Centralpoint positions Oxcyon as a leader in modern data aggregation and knowledge intelligence platforms, helping organizations transform complex information ecosystems into governed, searchable, and intelligent operational systems.
